I've been working on the way I plan meals for the past few months, + I think I've finally got a method that really works for me. Jake or I are at the grocery store only about once a week (sometimes two if we run out of milk or something) so it saves us gas + time from making multiple trips a week just to put together one meal.
I try to stay about a month ahead with our meals, planning when I have time, even if it's only a few minutes. This way, I never fall behind + we don't go through periods of time where we're eating the same thing every night for a week because I was too busy to plan. Again, this works for us, but it might not work for someone else.
Once I pick a recipe + assign it to a date, I'll create a little sticky tab with the date written on it + stick it to that page in my cookbook. This makes the recipe easy to find once that date rolls around, + also helps me when planning the following month, because I know that I should avoid using all the same recipes over again, which I can see from looking at the sticky tabs.
